It works, thanks!

/var/log/shepherd.log does not log anything from the `guix system
reconfigure...`.
Reconfiguring with --verbosity=10 fails with the following:
| lock released on `/gnu/store/qz82gly176p51n82j60rx9aadqxyrm0k-grub.cfg.lock'
| building of `/gnu/store/xhg2rknd3yvhhb5vsalwwz14kf6184v1-grub.cfg.drv': goal destroyed
guix system: error: build failed: | | | bind mounting `/dev/full' to `/gnu/store/xhg2rknd3yvhhb5vsalwwz14kf6184v1-grub.cfg.drv.chroot/dev/full'
I've managed to work around the issue:
- Moving the mount point of "LABEL=home" from /mnt to /foo did not work.
- After a failure, all subsequent `guix system reconfigure` fail, even
the original, working configuration.
- After a fresh system boot, commenting out the filesystem configuration
of LABEL=home works. I rebooted after that. From then, I re-added
the entry for LABEL=home with the new mount point /home. It worked
after a reboot.
Something is fishiy...
